The war-torn Lebanese cheered and welcomed the news of a cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah.

But there were protests in Israel against the ceasefire.

Adults and children all take to the streets to sing and dance.

I regained my laughter in a long time because I felt relieved that I would no longer have to fear war.

Now I can end my wandering life and go back to my friendly hometown, but I'm not lighthearted.

[Kamal al-Haz Ali / Lebanese Refugee: We are very happy. Of course, we cannot forget our sorrow for the martyrs, our villagers. Their blood is still flowing on the ground.

The international community also welcomed them all at once.

U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres said he hoped the agreement would end the suffering, destruction and violence suffered by the people of both countries.

Individual countries, including the United States, France and the United Kingdom, have also issued welcome statements and hope that the agreement will lead to a ceasefire in Gaza.

But the atmosphere in Israel is different.

Some forces, including those on the right, protested in the capital, Tel Aiv, saying they were opposed to the ceasefire.

They argued that safety in northern Israel has not yet been secured.

The ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect at 4 a.m. local time and 11 a.m. Korean time on the 27th.
